1.
Sawada Y, Daigaku Y, Toma K
Phys Rev E . 2023 Jun; 107(5-1):054404. PMID: 37329042
Self-replicability is a unique attribute observed in all living organisms, and the question of how the life was physically initiated could be equivalent to the question of how self-replicating informative...

Hayashi Y, Sawada Y
Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys . 2013 Sep; 88(2):022704. PMID: 24032861
Proactive motion in hand tracking and in finger bending, in which the body motion occurs prior to the reference signal, has been previously reported when a periodic target signal was...
3.
Rieu J, Barentin C, Sawai S, Maeda Y, Sawada Y
J Biol Phys . 2013 Jan; 30(4):345-64. PMID: 23345877
Migration of Dictyostelium discoideum slugs results from coordinated movement of their constituent cells. It is generally assumed that each cell contributes to the total motive force of the slug. However,...

Rieu J, Saito T, Delanoe-Ayari H, Sawada Y, Kay R
Cell Motil Cytoskeleton . 2009 Aug; 66(12):1073-86. PMID: 19693807
The collective motion of cells in a biological tissue originates from their individual responses to chemical and mechanical signals. The Dictyostelium slug moves as a collective of up to 100,000...

Barentin C, Sawada Y, Rieu J
Eur Biophys J . 2006 Jan; 35(4):328-39. PMID: 16404591
We present a new method for quantification of traction forces exerted by migrating single cells and multicellular assemblies from deformations of flexible substrate. It is based on an iterative biconjugate...

Rieu J, Barentin C, Maeda Y, Sawada Y
Biophys J . 2005 Aug; 89(5):3563-76. PMID: 16113106
We use the flexible substrate method to study how and where mechanical forces are exerted during the migration of Dictyostelium slugs. This old and contentious issue has been left poorly...

Sawai S, Hirano T, Maeda Y, Sawada Y
J Exp Biol . 2002 Aug; 205(Pt 17):2583-90. PMID: 12151364
Recently it was demonstrated that a rapidly forming, self-organizing pattern that emerges within two-dimensional Dictyostelium discoideum cell cultures could later give rise to stripes of distinct zones, each comprising different...
